I just played the demo on my 360 and it was fucking awesome. Have any of you guys tried it?
The demo of what?
Sonic Generations, came out at some point yesterday. You get to be Modern and Classic Sonic on Green Hill Zone.
Huh. See, I played the classic Sonic demo months and months ago. I had no idea they did the modern Sonic demo too. I'll download this shit pronto, see if they've improved it. I DID like what I played, but the physics seemed a wee bit off. Don't get me wrong, not "Sonic 4 horrible stiffness can never get momentum" off--dead opposite, Classic Sonic actually seemed to slip and slide a little too quickly. We'll see what I think of the new/updated demo, though.
OT: I forgave Sega and Sonic team about a year and a half ago, actually, when I played Sonic Unleashed.
It's not half as bad as people make it out to be. I mean, the Werehog thing isn't so much enjoyed as tolerated, those stages in particular
really drag, but they were competent, playable, and polished and I loved the shit out of the new Sonic gameplay. It was a game with a fair number of problems, I'll certainly admit, the difficulty ROCKET SHIP being one of them for sure, frustrating fetch-quests being another, but it was refreshing to have a game that didn't take itself seriously and I found it to be a huge step up from the previous 3D Sonic titles--even Adventure 1 and 2, in a lot of ways. I can say the same for Sonic Colors.
Really, I don't know what Sonic fans ***** about lately--Sonic's been on his A-game for a while now. That said, I eagerly look forward to Generations.
